Abstract: An electrode for active oxygen species comprising a conductive component with a polymer membrane of a metal porphyrin complex formed on the surface is disclosed. The electrode for active oxygen species can detect active oxygen species such as superoxide anion radicals, hydrogen peroxide, and .OH and other active radical species (NO, ONOO—, etc.) in any environment including in vivo environment as well as in vitro environment. The electrode thus can be used for specifying various diseases and examining active oxygen species in food or in water such as tap water and sewage water.
